Nope, we are not using SLA. The one I'm using is:

http://vsnet.cpan.org/modules/by-module/Astro/

 I thought it was the same as yours since they use the same name. A new
version was released last November, but the module goes way back.  So if
there is a new one then he's using the same name and duplicating effort
that was done a while back.. be interesting to know why. Maybe his does it
better someway.. I'll investigate when I'm back in the office and dont
have a meter of drywall hanging in my living room. :)
